Associated Press Dispatches to the II ERALD
SAN Francisco, September BE
yond the issuance of bulletins, it is
impossible to learn anything OF the
Governors condition this morning
from his attendants. 1t is tacitly adj
mitted, however, that he may pass
away at any moment, either in stu
por or by another stroke OF paralysis
tits supposed that the Governor passed
quiet night, from the fact that he is
said to be somewhat stronger this
morning.
MORNING BULLETIN.
The first bulletin was issued at s 80
as follows:
"Governor Bartlett is resting quietly
His pulse is stronger and breathing
more regular. Temperature, 991a
pulse, 81: respiration, 80"
AT 10 A. M.-NO CHANGE.
The next was at loan There was
little change in the Governors condi'
ton. The symptoms are those of in
ere sed pressure in the brain. There
is no evidence of increased uremiC
poisoning, and the kidneys are elimi-
mating sufficient urea to keep the sys-
tenn free. Temperature, SO; pulse, 1O2
NOoN-sLIGHTLY IMPROVED.
The Governor awoke from half an
hours quiet sleep at II noon. There
was a slight improvement in his con-
dition, though the pulse, temperature
and respiration remain the same.
AT6P. MEMORABLE sREPoRT.
At 6p. NJ. Governor Bartlett's symp-
toms are more favorable and intervals
of consciousness more frequ snt. He
swallows with difficulty. He is now
sleeping. Temperature, 99.S; pulse,
104; respiration 30.
10 p. M.-PULsE 120 DEGREES.
The official bulletin which was is
sued at II P. NJ, says: The Governor IS
condition is extremely critical. He
has been asleep for the past half-hour.
The expression of his countenance is
natural, but the indications are very
unfavorable. Pulse, 100; temperature,
100 1-5; respiration, 36.
WAITING FOR THE END.
Reports are received that the ply
sicians have expressed fears that the
Governor may die before morning.
REASONABLE FEARS.
Although the bulletins of Governor
Bartlett's physicians assume a more
favorable tone hourly, the fact that
his pulse has jumped from 102 at 6 p.
NJ. to 120 at 10P. NJ. (Which is double
the normal rate) is matter for com
ment. This is the highest pulse rate
reached during the Governors illness.
This afternoon he failed to recognize
two or three friends who were admit
ted to his room.
LATEsT-NO MARKED CHANGE.
From the best that can be learned
there is no reason to expect marked
change in the Governors condition
for the next two or three hours at
least.
"a special dispatch.sto Hon. S. M.
White received here last night, dated
at San Francisco att O'Clock last even

gence that Governor Bartlett's death
was expected at any hour.-ED. HER

CONSERVATIVES COMMENT.
''The Timcs'' DisapprOves of the
Invitation to Gladstone.


LONDON, September 7.-Comment-
ing on the invitation received by
Gladstone, from the Executive Com
mittee to attend the Centennial cele-
bration at Philadelphia, of the adop-
tion of the American Constitution, the
Times says: "Englishmen will not
fail to recognize the kindly feeling
that prompted the invitation. We are
sorry, as Gladstone was chosen, that
he is unable to accept, but we find it
difficult TO discover how the conclusion
was arrived at that Gladstone was
peculiarly fitted to represent England.
On such an occasion we should hardly
select Blaine to represent the United
States if an English celebration were
in question"
